All the 20 Teams Of Garage48 Hardware & Arts 2016 Hackathon In All Their Glory

Garage48 Hardware & Arts 2016 is the bomb! Literally. The teams are having fun, although we have nearly 150 participants working on 20 various prototypes from building a tea machine, gene testing machine for students, smart doorbell, infusion heater to a smart bubble helmet to wear fashionably on the head.

The teams today started with the first checkpoint to give feedback of their brainstorm outcome to now actually building the products. Our partners, such as Mooncascade, Rohde&Schwarz, Eccom, Skeleton Technologies, Hedgehog and Elisa have provided us with invaluable know-how, equipment and mentors. The most popular room today has been without question the lab, where DigiLab guys from University of Tartu have been guiding the teams non-stop.

BombiWe are going to create a word guessing game for revising the vocabulary. We will make an app that sends words to a robot. On the screen of the robot the word that have to be explained appear. The robot has a random timer in it and will make sound, if the time has run out.Team members: Kaia Tomson - project manager, Kristina Allik - web designer/ 3D designer, Maria Purola - web marketing expert, Erkki Lindpere - developer, Kairi Schotter - developer, Edgars Grava - electronics engineer

8. Smart Ramp We are building a solution for US Navy to move equipment and vehicles from one ship to another using a ramp while those ships are moving with a different amplitude ('till up to 1 m).Team members: Veiko Dieves - team leader, Martin Meisalu - mechanical engineer, Rain Randsberg - chief engineer, Andreas Ayal - electronics engineer, Ranno Päi - designer

9. False Radio NetworkWe are building a device that is able to replay recorded radio signals in a way that those signals sound and seem authentic military radio signals. That project aims to deceive enemy radio reconnaissance units.Team members: Veiko Dieves - team leader, Erik Ilbis - radio engineer, Dmitrijs Čulkovs - radio engineer, Jaanus Kalda - radio engineer, Kalle-Kustav Kruus - radio engineer

12. NoBellSmart doorbell device and mobile app for apartments. You can answer your door anywhere. Whenever someone activates the doorbell you get a video call from your door. You can talk to the delivery man if you are not at home or check who is at the door before letting him in.Team members: Kristiina Rahkema - team leader, mobile apps, Andres Lindemann - marketing, Eno Menov - design, Ingrid Hunt - marketing, Martin Meisalu - mechanics, Andre Liima - electronics, Jaan Tohver - mobile apps, Siim Talvik - electronics

13.CitySenseWe take city property evaluation to the next level by delivering hard evidence on a specific location. This is achieved by the CitySense platform that aggregates readings from various sensors operating in the real environment. The most straight forward target customer group is billboard space providers that can utilize daily traffic statistics to justify the price tag for their advertising space. More complex cases include real estate buyers and rental customers that wish to make an informed decision for where to buy your next home, or locate your business.Team members: Mart Moora - team lead, Kristjan Eljand - data scientist, Ance Gricmane - artist, Gita Sakale - engineer, Aleksandra Varnaeva - designer, Tatjana Mändla - visionary/marketer

15. WulfCountOn the battlefield, when you’re fatigued and under the stress, the last thing on your mind would be how many bullets you have left in your magazine…But if you run out-of-ammo when you are under attack - you may die! If your brother-in-arms next to you, protecting your flanks runs out of ammo – You both may die. Team in G48 is building a prototype for a device that counts how many bullets there are left in your cartridge magazine and displays the number on a screen.This is a first step for introducing a new aspect to modern warfare by working on this new system. Solution which in future not only will inform single gun operator about his ammunition status, but as well will be capable to inform units commanding officers about dangerous situations on the battlefield based on ammunition usage per time, and overall status of ammunition left.Team members: Joosep Parts (Estonia) – original idea, Anette Sepp (Estonia), Fridtjof Wesseltoft (Norway), Timo Anso (Estonia), Uldis Kalējs (Latvia), Ulf Anso (Estonia), Uvis Lapsiņš (Latvia), Vahur Poolak (Estonia)

16. Eye-ShirtWe are building the first led t-shirt that you can control with your smartphone. We will pay t-shirt owners if they agree to show advertisements on their t-shirts.Team members: Kristjan Järvan - team manager, Tiit Rätsep - electronic engineer, Ronald Tammepõld - developer, Arya Sohrabizadeh - ux/ui, Egija Gailuma - marketing, Janis Sauss - marketing, Andreas Krigoltoi - design

20. InfusionWarmerSaving the lives of people who have lost a lot of blood in cold environments. It’s a small lightweight heater at the end of the infusion line, just before the cannula. The point is warming up the fluid that goes into the body to avoid hypothermia. For first responders, military medics and ambulance services who don’t have a way to keep their fluids warm.
